National Standard Treatment Guidelines (STGs) For HIV/AIDS

Clinical guidelines attempt to minimise on ineffective interventions, waste of resources as well as harm to patients. Standard treatment guidelines when developed using scientific evidence, are intended to lead to changes in clinical practice that will improve outcomes for patients. The need for HIV/AIDS care standard treatment guidelines in health institutions is desperate.

HAQOCI is in the process of developing standard treatment guidelines. Once the guidelines are developed, it is envisaged that there will be training on use of the STGs and therefore training material will be developed for both the facilitators and participants in collaboration with identified partners.
